Google has ranted that Apple will introduce RCS support on iPhones this autumn

Last November, Apple gave up and said it would add support for RCS (Rich Communication Services messaging standard) to its smartphones in 2024. At that time, the company did not specify a more specific timeline, but now Google has spoken up.

Here's What We Know

A new landing page has been added to the Android website that introduces users to the Messages app. It says that RCS on the iPhone will be available in autumn 2024.

"Apple has announced it will be adopting RCS in the fall of 2024. Once that happens, it will mean a better messaging experience for everyone", the site says.

RCS is likely to debut in iOS 18, which will be announced on 10 June, but will only be released alongside the iPhone 16 family this autumn.
